Here are the top trolls for Week 5.
Washington Commanders 34, Cleveland Browns 13
The Jayden Daniels show keeps rolling, as the Washington Commanders won their fourth straight game.
Washington dominated with a strong defensive performance, holding the Cleveland Browns without a touchdown until the fourth quarter. The Commanders had more passing yards (219) than the Browns had total yards (212).
Washington had a simple video with shade aimed at the shared home state of the Browns and Cincinnati Bengals, two teams they defeated in the past three weeks.

Houston Texans 23, Buffalo Bills 20
It came down to the final play, but the Houston Texans were victorious after a 59-yard field goal from Ka'imi Fairbairn.
The Buffalo Bills tied the score with 3:18 remaining in the game, but went 3-and-out on their next drive, squandering a chance to go ahead.
The Texans utilized buffalo wings, a staple of the upstate New York region, for a nice pun to troll the Bills after the win.

Jacksonville Jaguars 37, Indianapolis Colts 34
Facing a potential 0-5 record, the Jacksonville Jaguars came out on top after a 49-yard field goal from Cam Little with 17 seconds left.
Without Anthony Richardson because of an injury, Joe Flacco stepped in and threw for 359 yards and three touchdowns, including one that tied the game with 2:40 remaining. But, the Jaguars found a way to come out on top, snapping the Indianapolis Colts' two-game winning streak.
Jacksonville had fun after its victory, posting a busy video aimed at Indianapolis.

Minnesota Vikings 23, New York Jets 17
Different continent, same result for the Minnesota Vikings, who held on to defeat the New York Jets.
New York had a chance at tying the game, but Stephon Gilmore intercepted Aaron Rodgers with 49 seconds left, icing the victory. Minnesota now has its first 5-0 start to a season since 2016.
The Vikings had a clever reference to London for their troll.

Atlanta Falcons 36, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 30
"Thursday Night Football" required an extra period, but it didn't last for long as the Atlanta Falcons scored on their first drive.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had a three-point lead with 1:44 remaining in the fourth quarter, but went 3-and-out, giving Atlanta a chance to tie it. The Falcons did, off a 52-yard kick from Younghoe Koo, and took advantage in overtime.
Atlanta utilized the pirate in the "SpongeBob SquarePants" theme song to troll Tampa Bay.
